Rome developed the arch which was capable of supporting weight more efficiently than the columns used by the Greeks, Egyptians, and others. They also extended the arch into a tunnel-like structure called the vault, and they ran the arch in a circle called the dome. These architectural innovations have long outlived the Romans, and the Jefferson Memorial in Washington DC is a copy of a domed temple in Rome called the Pantheon, built by Marcus Agrippa. The arch was also used for bridges and aqueducts. Rather than rely on huge blocks of stone which had to be quarried and transported from a great distance, the Romans developed a kind of instant stone; concrete, which we still use today. The Romans also had hydraulic concrete which hardened when wet. The infamous Roman puppet Herod the Great built a port city called Caesaria where no natural harbor existed. Forms were erected in the water, and the hydraulic concrete was poured into them. Caesaria was similar to the two "Mulberry" harbors used at Normandy in June 1944, except that these were made of preformed concrete cassions which were towed into place and sunk. Although constructed with concrete reinforced by steel I-beam, the modern circular sports stadium was certainly inspired by the Roman amphitheaters which were the most difficult to build of all Roman architecture.
At the very least, you will need algebra and trig. You will also need some calculus to calculate forces/stresses.
It can vary. There are many private schools, art schools, and design schools all over the country in the US. Be careful though. Be sure to research accreditation. Cal Poly is a decent school for Architecture in CA, and their requirements are pretty standard for four year colleges in the state.
First you need all your general ed., then the following.
English Composition - 3 units
Critical Thinking - 3 units
Speech - 3 units
Physics (Trig based) - 8 units
Analytical Geometry/Calculus/Diff.Eqs - 4 units
Architectural Practice - 1 unit
Beginning Design and Drawing - 6 units
Computer applications - 3 units
So if math doesn't scare you, you got it. Check assist.org also to see what you can get done at your community college. Good luck.
Are you looking for concreate? What are you using the foundation for. Let me know,
trabeate does not refer to a specific style in the way that "greek" or "classical" architecture would. Trabeate is a term meaning post-and-beam. Two columns holding up a plank would also be called a trabeated span. Very early civilizations have used this system of construction dating back to early Mesopotamian architecture.
THAT OPTION IS
a. Gupta architecture
b. Rashtrakuta architecture
c. Chalukya architecture
d. Chola architecture
The Kailash Temple at Ellora is built by Krishna 1 of the Rashtrakuta dynasty.
An elevation drawing is a one dimensional (flat) execution of a portion of a floor plan or architectural rendering of a house plan. It is seen 'head on' or as if you were facing the particular wall or home from the front.
Yes, the Pantheon would not only count as Roman architecture, but it would count as a masterpiece of Roman architecture.
There are at least 30 countries linked by at least 15 'Friendship Bridges'.
Afghanistan - Uzbekistan, Romania - Bulgaria, China - Nepal and many others.
It is where huge white cows come down and eat Hannah Montana!!!!!!!!! Hahahahahaha
The key stone is the stone placed at the apex of the arch, and prevents the two sides of the arch falling in and collapsing.
Imaginative drawing is simply the act of drawing images that you thing of in your head.
CISC and RISC are the two categories that are used to classify CPU architecture. CISC is an acronym for complex instruction set computer.

The qualifications one can have to be a building architect is generally a degree from a university or college. The degree would be in architecture. One should also have experience in the field.
The architect of Warwick Castle was William the Conqueror. He was a Norman King of England and he ordered to build it in 1068. The objective of this construction was to protect the region against rebellion.
Given that this question was posted under Entertainment and Arts, I'm going to assume that this office bathroom is to be used for the purposes of either Entertainment or Arts. That assumption leads to several different answers depending on more specific information.
1. Entertainment -
Situation A: You want to hold a large party in your office, but do not have enough floorspace to hold all your many guests.
Solution: A tastefully decorated bathroom can provide that extra bit of floorspace needed for when your party really gets jumping. The actual space you would need to accommodate above guests would of course depend on the number of guests, but if you go by the assumption that every person requires at least 3 square feet of personal space, more if you think your guests are very particular about personal space, should be safe. Remember, leaving the lid down can give that vital extra square foot or so.
Situation B: You want an office bathroom which is as entertaining as it is relieving.
Solution: This situation doesn't really need any special considerations for space, the standard bathroom size (i.e. whatever is in place now) should suffice. The trick is in how you use it. Flat panel monitors with movies playing take up very little space and keep busy workers entertained for hours.
Arts:
Situation C: Your office bathroom is functional, but not really very artsy.
Solution: Similar to Situation B above, this doesn't appear to need any extra space installed. If you do want it to appear bigger, try opposing mirrors to give that corridor effect. Or for a real kick, build the bathroom inside a spherical mirror. I don't know what that would look like inside, but I would love to find out.
Situation D: You want your office workers to feel as though they're contributing to the world of art by their vry presence in the bathroom.
Solution: Canvases in front of urinals, cameras in toilet bowls.
No. Sarah Lockwood Winchester had been married to one of the children of the man who owned the Winchester Repeating Arms Company. After he died in Connecticut and her arthritis worsened she moved to the Santa Clara Valley where the climate was perfect. She owned of a lot of property in San Mateo County and the northern part of Santa Clara County, like Palo Alto. She bought farmland in San Jose and built her odd mansion as a hobby. It was built on her successful, working apricot and prune orchard. She had a powerful enemy in San Mateo County who was a bully landowner and he helped ruin her reputation. She also has a troublemaker nephew who created stories about her. She finally paid him off in return for him leaving her alone.
Architects answer to structural heads for what they are planning as a design for building.
Quartzite is found, amongst other places, in counties Donegal and Wicklow.
